slip n’ slide

December 28, 2009

This evening included a normal sort of Sunday drive–normal, probably, only in my family, as it meant a trip to the dump. But this particular drive also included a stop at an all-too-familiar tree, as of last night. Here is a snapshot of that tree. Sideways, you say? Well, not exactly: for this is the perspective I unfortunately, had, as I tried to decide how exactly I should extract myself from the car without tipping it, the rest of the way, over from its precariously wedged position. Yes, it’s high time for those snow-appropriate tires: no more excuses forthcoming from my winterly-wimpy self!
